Hermann Hearsay Back Up After Technical Problems

Published by Jimmy Oldsun, NDRIRSRWRAFTC & Editor

We apologize for any inconvenience we may have caused our readers during the past 24 hours.  Our website host has been experiencing technical difficulties.  Had it not been for Frank Furter's involvement with Google's technical people, the problem could have continued for much, much longer.  (A photo of Frank smoking one of his favorite cigars is shown here on the right.)

After further consideration, we have decided to match the salary Frank had been offered by Best Buy in Columbia.  We are happy to report that Frank has decided to remain with Hermann Hearsay.  He will not be leaving us next Friday as we had previously announced. 

In addition to the salary increase, Frank will be getting a case of premium quality cigars every month.  And we are promoting our resident geek to the new position of "Webmaster, Senior IT Engineer, Coffee Brewer and Custodian".  In this position, Frank will have expanded responsibilities.  You may even see a few articles on behind-the-scenes technical stuff written by Frank!

Welcome back Frankie ol' boy!

Quote Of The Day - Monday, 6/7/2010

John Wooden the legendary bascketball coach of the UCLA Bruins passed away this past week at the age of 99. John Wooden was truly one of the great coaches of all time.  A great coach, a great teacher, a great motivator, a great leader, a great role model and a great man! A person who was admired by everyone who knew him as well as by many others like myself who felt they somehow knew him.. Coach Wooden was a remarkable man.  He was truly "The Wizard of Westwood".

"Material possessions, winning scores, and great reputations are meaningless in the eyes of the Lord, because He knows what we really are and that is all that matters." ~ John Wooden

The following article about John Wooden appeared in the L. A. Times on Friday, 6/4:

John Wooden's Pyramid Stands Test of Time

Wooden borrowed from others to construct his Pyramid of Success, which has become his legacy almost as much as his coaching victories.

June 04, 2010

By Robyn Norwood

John Wooden was a young high school teacher and coach in the 1930s when he first wrote his personal definition of success, searching for a way to assure his students — and their parents — they could be successful without earning all A's.

"I wanted to give them something to aspire to beyond higher marks in English classes or more statistics in sports," he told The Times in 2004.

Wooden tied success not to achievement, wealth or fame, but to how close a person came to their potential.

He spent another 14 years completing his Pyramid of Success, tinkering with 15 building blocks such as "Industriousness" "Enthusiasm," "Skill," and "Poise," before finishing the diagram in 1948, shortly before he left Indiana State for UCLA.

More than half a century later, the 10 national championship banners won by Wooden's UCLA basketball teams hang from the rafters at Pauley Pavilion — and his old-fashioned but still resonant Pyramid of Success adorns everything from classroom walls at Mariners Elementary in Newport Beach to books, websites, mouse pads, even a wall in a Torrance collection agency.

Even well into his 90s, Wooden used to mail out some 1,500 copies of his pyramid a year, many of them to high school coaches who wanted to distribute them to their teams.

Though others urged him to copyright the pyramid, Wooden said in recent years he never had, prompting a friend to tell him he didn't have a marketing bone in his body.

"I hope not," Wooden said.

Completed during the Truman administration, the Pyramid of Success has improbably stood the test of time.

Stephen R. Covey, the bestselling author of "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" is an admirer of Wooden's who has called the pyramid and Wooden's other maxims "classic wisdom."

It resonates not only with nostalgic mid-career workers in motivational seminars, but with 21st-century schoolchildren.

In January 2005, at 94, Wooden visited the Newport Beach elementary school where teacher Pat McLaughlin, a UCLA graduate, created a character-education program based on Wooden's pyramid and his 2003 children's book, "Inch and Miles: The Journey to Success."

"It was fun. He was a good man," Mariners Elementary student Brandy Joyce said later that year. "He said something funny I didn't understand — it was only for the grown-ups."

After Wooden's visit, essays graced the walls of McLaughlin's Room 13.

"Self-control sounds like not yelling the answer when it's not your turn," Cole Chapin wrote.
